those levels are relative, and so someone living in "poverty" in the UK is not the same thing as someone living in poverty in the third world. here in the UK there are lots of jobs, but also lots of people who don't want to work and prefer to live off the state, and hence the majority of people living in poverty in the uk, do so by choice.
